problem.halfway printing, extruder change position
April 23, 2011 11:17AM
Hallo all,

First sorry for my bad. English.

I make a Mendel with Gen3 elektroniks and pololu stepper controllers, and use Repstrapper software.

My problem is: If i print a part the first 15 layers or so, Its go super good, but after the extruder take a other (X Y) position and continues the print.
I tray with a other part that have more then 30 layers and every thing go good.

So one part have problems and a other part (with te same height) go wrong

I load a STL file in to Repsnapper, i dont use steinforce ( i dont now how to use steinforce yet).
Will it be a setting wrong in Repsnapper?

Please help

Gr nonaak

If the tool path display in repsnapper looks good, then you might be missing steps in the x and y stepper motors.

Is your pulley slipping on the motor shaft?

Most likely that the stepper driver is overheating. This may cause you to loose steps. Are you motors hot?
